Take back the streets

Join West Mt. Airy Neighbors on Thursday, February 19, from 7:30 to 9 p.m. at Summit Presbyterian Church, corner of Greene and Westview Streets. This meeting centers around Taking Back Our Streets - Cars, People, and Pavement with special guest Gary Toth of Project for Public Spaces. Come learn about how the community can develop a street network that is safer and has less congestion, while also promoting walking, bicycling, transit, healthy watersheds and the use of streets as public spaces for social interaction and community life.

WMAN's Quality of Life Committee's mission is twofold: to facilitate neighborhood responses to a variety of issues which affect residents' quality of life, and to pool knowledge, resources, and networks to work effectively in promoting public safety throughout West Mt. Airy.
